Diastereomers are two molecules which are stereoisomers (same molecular formula, same connectivity, different arrangement of atoms in space) but are not enantiomers.

Diastereomers are defined as compounds which have the same molecular formula and sequence of bonded elements but which are nonsuperimposable, non-mirror images.

Diastereomers differ not only in physical properties but also in chemical reactivity — how a compound reacts with others. Glucose and galactose, for instance, are diastereomers. Even …

Aug 28, 2025 · Diastereomers represent a specific category of molecules that share the same molecular formula and the same sequence of bonded atoms, but differ in their three …

Diastereomers are stereoisomers that are not mirror images of each other and have different physical and chemical properties.

May 30, 2025 · Diastereomers are stereoisomers that are not mirror images of each other. In other words, they are stereoisomers that are not enantiomers. Diastereomers have the same …

Diastereomers form when there are multiple chiral centers, allowing for variations in configuration at one or more centers while maintaining the others unchanged.
